# Year 7 RSE Drop Down Day

Year 7 pupils all participated in an RSE drop down day, which has been further aligned to their Relationships and Sex Education curriculum. In the two sessions, pupils watched a short film, provided by TenTen Resources, titled "Facts of Life", and were introduced to the character of Esther, who had newly moved schools part way through the academic year, and was trying to navigate her way around making friends, and learning how to fit in.

The pupils then engaged in powerful discussions about whether receiving nasty or hurtful commentary is worse in person or real life and had some very thought provoking opinions on this matter.

Pupils in their second session then participated in more creative group work and individual tasks, referencing the message of Trudy Ludwig's book "The Invisible Boy" and were looking at ways that they could boost the self confidence of the character 'Brian' in her book.

Lastly, pupils took part in a creative task involving scratch art crosses. Pupils were tasked with designing a pattern on the front and writing something about what kindness/friendship means to them on the back. The pupils had lots of fun sketching their patterns to personalise them. The pupils were well behaved, respectful and enthusiastic to share their thoughts and feelings.
